♡ Favorite Makeup Products ♡

♡ 1. Naked 3 - I've been wearing the Naked 3 palette pretty much everyday since I got it. I love it so much! I've made a post about how I wear the palette and I will link that right here. :)
♡ 2. EOS Strawberry Sorbet - I actually just bought this for the first time last month and I instantly fell in love with it! It smells heavenly and it feels amazing on my lips.
 3. NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream - I have these matte lip creams in Monte Carlo, Istanbul, and Addis Ababa. My favorite is the Istanbul and I sometimes put it on with the Addis Ababa underneath it and it looks really nice!
 4. L'Oreal's BB Cream - My skin is really oily and I don't really like wearing foundation so I wear BB cream instead. I love this one by l'oreal because it's really light on my face but it still gives me coverage.
 5. Too Faced Size Queen Mascara - This mascara is really really amazing in my opinion. I curl my eyelashes before and after I put it on and they look amazing!
 6. E.L.F. Studio Eyebrow Kit -  This is only $3 and it is the best eyebrow product I've ever tried. It's really easy to use, first you apply the gel and then the powder. After that I usually spray hairspray on my spooly brush and then put it on my eyebrows so that they stay in the shape I want them too.

Thank you for reading! If you want to you can follow me on twitter here. I'm almost always on there.

♥ Too Faced: La Creme in Marshmallow Bunny ♥

Too Faced's La Creme lipsticks are "rich creamy colors, drenched with luscious, hydrating moisturizers including white lotus flower and power peptides." The white lotus flower and power peptides hydrate, soothe and condition your lips. These lipsticks come in 20 different colors and they're all vegan friendly!
They're $21 and you can buy them on Too Faced's website or at Ulta and Sephora. ♥

Marshmallow Bunny is super shimmery, creamy, and it's a sheer baby pink color. I love wearing pink lipsticks so this color is perfect for me. You can also add this lip color to the center of your lips to make your lips look fuller and to get a cute pouty look! This lipstick makes my lips feel super soft while I wear it and after I take it off as well. It only lasts about 4 hours though if you wear lip liner underneath it. Another downside is that since it is super creamy it leaves lines on your lips whenever you press them together..

♥ My Everyday Makeup ♥

I am not a makeup professional, I just like wearing makeup so please don't get offended by this post!
♥ FACE ♥
I don't really do a lot to my face. But I use L'Oreal Paris Studio Secrets BB Cream instead of using a foundation because I don't like the cakey feeling that comes with wearing most foundations. I also use L'Oreal's true match powder sometimes. I use E.L.F.'s tone correcting concealer. When I'm done putting on my makeup I use E.L.F.'s setting spray. 

♥ LIPS ♥
My everyday lipstick is one of Revlon's matte lipsticks, I use pink pout but I sometimes use stormy pink.
I use the bubblegum lip scrub from LUSH and I use Maybeline's baby lips when I'm not wearing lipstick.

♥ EYESHADOW ♥
I use Too Faced's Naked Eye palette that I got for christmas last year. 
I put numbers 1 & 3 all over my eyelid and I put more of number 1 in the inner corners of my eyes. 
Then I put 2 & 4 in the outer corners of my eyes and around in the crease. I ran out of my eyebrow kit a long time ago and haven't had the money to buy a new one so I've been mixing numbers 5 and 6 and applying them to my eyebrows with an angled brush. It doesn't look as bad as it sounds but I will be buying a new eyebrow kit sooner or later hahaha.


♥ EYELINER ♥
 Sometimes people ask me how I got good at doing my eyeliner and all I can really say is that I've been practicing since I was in 6th grade. I don't think my eyeliner is perfect, I think I have my good days and my bad days, but anyways here's how I do my eyeliner!
First I draw a line on the outer corner of my eye going slightly up.
Then I draw another line on top of that line but I draw it so that it is like a corner of a little obtuse triangle.
After that I draw a line across my eyelid, all the way down to the other side of my eye.
And finally, I fill in the tiny obtuse triangle and make sure there are no other empty spaces on my eyes! :)
This isn't my picture, (I found it on tumblr if it's yours tell me!) but it's basically how I put on my eyeliner.


♥ MASCARA ♥
I use the Size Queen mascara from Too faced! I curl my lashes with an eyelash curler and then I apply one coat of mascara. Then I curl them again and apply another coat.

♥ And this is what my face looks like when I'm done putting on my everyday makeup! ♥

♥ Too Faced: Size Queen Mascara ♥



Too Faced Cosmetics has been my favorite makeup brand since I bought their 'naked eye' eye shadow palette. My mom bought me their size queen mascara and their sweethearts blush as a late birthday present in the beginning of summer and I hadn't gotten around to actually using it until the beginning of September though and I was really happy with how long and dark they made my eyelashes! 
This picture was from my instagram so the quality isn't very good. 
My mom bought the mascara from hsn.com for $21 but when I run out I plan on buying more from amazon.com. Amazon is selling it for $13!

Rate: 4/5
I give this mascara a 4/5 because it can get really clumpy but it's still wearable!
